5-Day Tanzania Great Migration Safari in Northern Serengeti

You'll be picked up from your lodge and begin a beautiful journey to Tarangire National Park, carrying lunch boxes with you.

Tarangire National Park is famous for its massive baobabs and large herds of elephants. Although it is smaller than some of Tanzania's other parks, it is still home to a significant wildlife population, with a density matched only by Ngorongoro. You'll enjoy a picnic lunch during your safari drive and have plenty of time to explore the national park, stop to observe the wildlife, and take photos. Your dinner and overnight stay will be at Marera Valley Group of Lodges.

After breakfast, you will drive up into the cooler regions of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. There will be a chance to stop and see the spectacular Ngorongoro Crater. You will then transit through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area to the Serengeti, entering the southern part of the park.

The Serengeti is genuinely spectacular. It is famous for its vast open grasslands, which allow excellent wildlife sightings. The Serengeti boasts an abundance of wildlife, including impalas, buffaloes, crocodiles, and hippos. In addition to the iconic landscapes, you have a good chance of encountering predators, and you may see lions, cheetahs, and leopards. After your game drive, you will arrive at Tanzania Bush Camp for dinner and an overnight stay.

After breakfast, you will wind through the Serengeti towards the northern region, stopping along the way to experience more of its wonders.

While it boasts abundant wildlife, the Serengeti is best known for its annual Great Migration. During the migration, vast numbers of wildebeest, zebra, and antelope move in an annual pattern, constantly seeking fresh grazing. The migration can be found during any given month; you just need to know where to look. At this time of year, the migration is usually in the Northern Serengeti. After your game drive, you will arrive at Safari Haven Migration Camp for dinner and an overnight stay.

After breakfast, enjoy a morning game drive in the Northern Serengeti, exploring the beautiful landscapes and looking for millions of wildebeest, zebras, lions, giraffes, and other wildlife. Later, continue driving towards the Central Serengeti, enjoying game viewing along the way.

You will arrive at Tanzania Bush Camp, where you can relax, enjoy dinner, and spend the night surrounded by the peaceful atmosphere of the Serengeti.

After breakfast, early in the morning, you will transfer from the Central Serengeti to the Ngorongoro Crater. You'll descend into the crater for a day of game drives and beautiful scenery. Once you finish the game drives, we will transfer you to Arusha, where you will conclude your safari.

Ngorongoro Crater is a pristine wilderness concealed by steep volcanic walls, with sweeping savannahs, pockets of acacia woodland, and glistening lakes and swamps. The crater was created when a large volcano exploded and collapsed in on itself two to three million years ago. The drive down into the crater is an adventure in itself, and when you reach the crater floor, you quickly find yourself among large numbers of wildebeest, zebra, gazelle, and more than 500 bird species. After your game drive, you will be dropped off at a place of your choice.
